MAINTENANCE & ADJUSTMENTS
Safe Servicing Practices
Refer to the Safety Precautions section of this manual for
more service safety information.
Service Introduction
Regular maintenance is the best prevention for costly
downtime or expensive, premature repair. The following
pages contain suggested maintenance information and
schedules which the operator should follow on a routine
basis. For more detailed information order the correct Parts
Manual and General Service Manual for your unit. Refer to
the Product Literature section of this manual for more infor-
mation.
Remain alert for unusual noises, which could signal a prob-
lem. Visually inspect the machine for any abnormal wear or
damage. A good time to detect potential problems is while
performing scheduled maintenance service. Correcting the
problem as quickly as possible is the best insurance.
Clear away heavy build-up of grease, oil, dirt and debris,
especially in the engine and drive train areas; minute dust
particles are abrasive to close-tolerance engine and drive
train assemblies.
Some repairs require the assistance of a trained service
mechanic and should not be attempted by unskilled person-
nel. Consult your Hustler
®
Dealer when assistance is needed.
Hood
To open the hood, turn the latch clockwise, hold it, and
raise the hood. The latch is spring loaded so it will return to
the latch position automatically. The hood latch can be
locked using the keys supplied with the vehicle. Figure 4-1 &
Figure 4-2
To close the hood, lower it slowly into position and latch it.
Seat
The seat is not adjustable.
To allow access under the seat it will be necessary to raise
the seat bottom.
To raise the seat bottom, lift the back of the seat bottom
and pull up. The seat will pivot to the open position.
